What is the best way to bundle logback in an ear application. The application encaspulates web applications (war files) and ejb modules? By having the logback.xml in the web application I only get logs from that application but not from the ejb modules. Is theer some best practices for this scenarios?
Thanks.

Logback is one of the most widely used logging frameworks in the Java Community. It's a replacement for its predecessor, Log4j. Logback offers a faster implementation, provides more options for configuration, and more flexibility in archiving old log files.
By default, Spring Boot picks up the native configuration from its default location for the system (such as classpath:logback. xml for Logback), but you can set the location of the config file by using the "logging.
Spring Boot supports Log4j 2 for logging configuration if it is on the classpath. If you are using the starters for assembling dependencies that means you have to exclude Logback and then include log4j 2 instead. If you aren't using the starters then you need to provide jcl-over-slf4j (at least) in addition to Log4j 2.
Log4j has been defined as java based application with logging utility which is the java framework for logging messages to a different output, which helps enable to locate the problems. Logback is defined as the successor to log4j, which is also a java framework for logging messages in any java based applications.
I agree. Also, you may package this special jar packaged inside ear's lib directory exploded. This way, you may change this file easily.
Note: If you plan to change the logback.xml files dynamically without the need to redeploy, you may insert scan="true" in logback.xml
